Introduction

LMS have few recurrent mutations in their genome, unlike CNA. The tumor mutation burden of LMS has been found to be low in recent Whole Exome and Whole Genome Sequencing studies, with a median of mutations per Mb. Except for recurrent mutations that collectively inactivate and PTEN the majority of these mutations are private. ATRX mutations are frequently linked to the ALT phenotype, which has been shown to activate telomere lengthening independently of TERT reactivation.

The increased expression of genes involved in muscle development and function distinguishes LMS from other STS subtypes from a transcriptomic perspective. Additionally, the increased expression of genes involved in telomere maintenance, cell cycle, DNA replication, and the IGF1R signaling pathway distinguishes LMS from normal myogenic tissue. From a genomic perspective, retroperitoneal and other soft tissue LMS are identical to uterine LMS; however, transcriptomic profiling reveals that retroperitoneal RPS have a stronger HIF1a signature and a weaker DNA damage repair pathway signature than uterine LMS. Based on their gene expression profiles, other transcriptomic studies using RNAseq data have also shown that LMS can be divided into three main subtypes. The first two groups include retroperitoneal and soft tissue LMS, while the third group primarily includes uterine LMS. Despite the fact that these classifications have been reported and modified in a number of studies, there are discrepancies in terms of prognosis and clinical relevance, which prevent their application in clinical practice for the purpose of stratifying patients and directing treatment decisions [1].

Description

The authors recently defined three main subtypes of LMS in an integrative analysis of 70 genomes and 130 transcriptase’s. Each subtype is distinguished by distinct gene signatures and tumor mutational burdens. There were three subtypes of retroperitoneal LMS (which included uterine LMS as well) and subtype 2 (which included the vast majority of LMS in the abdominal cavity and some LMS in the extremities). Subtype 3 focused solely on uterine LMS. It is important to note that LMS 1 had a higher number of mutations, a lower overall survival rate than subtype 2, myogenic dedifferentiation, and a lot of DMD deletions. In LMS samples, strong signatures of homologous recombination deficiency and DNA damage repair were found through whole genome sequencing, suggesting a potential therapeutic opportunity for DNA damage and PARP inhibitors.

Tumor microenvironment LMS exhibits a heterogeneous tumor microenvironment, just like other STS subtypes. According to a number of studies aimed at defining the immune infiltrates in LMS, CD163-positive M2 macrophages were the most prevalent immune cells and correlated with the grade of the tumor. LMS cells that produce M-CSF have been shown to up regulate CD163 in vitro, indicating that tumor cells could drive macrophages toward the M2 phenotype. While B cells and tertiary lymphoid structures only affect a small percentage of LMS more than half of tumor samples also contain CD8 T cell infiltrates and frequently express MHC1 and PD-L1. It is important to note that the tumor transcriptomic and genomic subtypes have been found to have significant effects on the immune environment of LMS, with inflammatory tumors being linked to myogenic dedifferentiation and a high mutation burden. In high-grade LMS, these characteristics suggest the possibility of immunotherapy regimens that combine macrophage-targeting agents and immune checkpoint inhibitors [2].

LMS for pathological and molecular diagnosis are made up of fascicles that cross each other. In keeping with their myogenic differentiation, the tumor cells have abundant eosinophilic cytoplasm and pleomorphic nuclei. At least one marker, like desmin or H-caldesmon, should be present in the cells. Pleomorphic LMS are a subset of LMS that lack the myogenic appearance of other LMS. In this setting, smooth muscle differentiation can only be confirmed by the expression of at least two myogenic markers. The shortfall of articulation of Estrogen (trauma center) and Progesterone receptors (PR) by immunohistochemistry can be helpful to preclude a retroperitoneal metastasis of uterine beginning. Patients who have a history of LMS and who either have LMS that has undifferentiated areas in the tumor bulk or develop undifferentiated pleomorphic metastases with complete loss of the original myogenic differentiation are referred to as "dedifferentiated LMS." Of note, dedifferentiated liposarcomas DDLPS might contain "leiomyosarcomatous" part whose presence might forecast a more regrettable visualization. LMS that are far from large vessels in the retroperitoneum ought to raise suspicion for DDLPS. If immunostaining is positive, the surgical sample should be checked for a fatty component in the bulk of the tumor, and immunohistochemistry or FISH is typically used to check MDM2 status [3].

Because the driver mutation for LMS is still unknown, molecular analyses are not practical for everyday use. When confronted with a smooth muscle tumor that does not meet all of the criteria for malignancy, which is sometimes referred to as STUMP or "smooth muscle tumors of uncertain malignant potential," although this term is mostly used to describe uterine tumors, the primary contribution of molecular techniques is to ensure the diagnosis of malignancy. On comparative genomic hybridization (a-CGH), genuine LMS exhibit complex genetic profiles, including common homozygous deletions of DMD, PTEN, or MYOCARDIN amplification. However, uterine leiomyosarcomas account for the majority of the published evidence.

The genomic intricacy of LMS has likewise been evaluated at RNA level with an articulation signature named Intricacy File in Sarcomas (CINSARC) that is normal to all sarcomas with complex hereditary qualities. The principal interest of this mark is to dichotomize LMS patients in two degrees of hazard of metastasis (low and high), as contrasted and the customary pathology-based evaluating of LMS with the French FNCLCC grade. Clinical preliminaries are right now researching the contribution of this strategy to direct restorative choice [4].

Malignant melanotic nerve sheath tumor (MMNST) In the most recent WHO classification of soft tissue tumors these tumors were previously referred to as "melanotic schwannoma." The nosology was changed to all the more likely mirror the way that this brain cancer is related with a huge gamble of nearby repeat and metastasis.

Physiopathology and molecular characteristics A Carney complex, a genetic condition that predisposes to endocrinopathies, skin and heart myxomas, and pigmented skin lesions like blue nevi and lentigines, may accompany MMNST. Inactivating somatic mutations of the protein kinase. MMNST tend to originate from autonomic nerves, particularly in the paraspinal and midline. They can arise in adult patients and be singular or multifaceted.

MMNST are made up of spindle and epithelioid cells that connect to form fascicles for pathological and molecular diagnosis. The tumor nuclei exhibit focal pleomorphism and variable anisokaryosis. A mitotic rate greater than 2/10 HPF is the only morphological feature associated with a higher risk of metastasis. The cells contain variable measures of melanin shades with regards to their melanocytic separation. The stroma may contain psammoma bodies, which are analogous to acellular eosinophilic concretions, and the cells express the neural markers S100 and SOX10 in a diffuse manner and the melanocytic markers HMB45 and Melan-A in a heterogeneous manner.

These tumors are linked to PRKAR1A's complete inactivation on the molecular level. The term "perivascular epithelioid cells," which are thought to be the cells that gave rise to these tumors, was used to describe them. PEComas. They are mostly harmless, but in rare instances, they can cause malignant behavior, which is called a malignant PEComa. Based on the characteristics of the histopathology, it is still difficult to accurately predict the possibility of malignancy.

Physiopathology and molecular characteristics the majority of PEComas are sporadic, but a small subset of them occurs in the tuberous sclerosis complex. PEComas might foster in any anatomic area.

In kidneys, the term "angiomyolipoma" (AML) is frequently used, but PEComas and AML probably come from the same cells and share a dual myogenic and melanocytic phenotype. The numerous tumor types that exhibit a melanocytic phenotype have been coined under the umbrella term "the microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (MiTF) family of tumours" in the kidney, where the field is still under investigation [5].

Conclusion

PEComas can contain TFE3 fusions with a variety of 5' partners, including SPFQ, NONO, and DVL2 at the molecular level. Alternately, the majority of TFE3 wild-type tumors contain TSC2 inactivating mutations. PEComas are made up of cells that have a big cytoplasm that can be clear, granular, or eosinophilic, depending on the diagnosis. The cells can radiate from large vessels and are arranged in nests or short fascicles. There are numerous vessels in the stroma. In the retroperitoneum, PEComas frequently show sclerous stromal changes. Perspectives and conclusions RPS are a diverse group of mesenchymal neoplasms with a variety of pathological and molecular characteristics that are difficult to diagnose. These tumors have been dismantled thanks to recent advancements in molecular biology, which have identified various biological subgroups with distinct molecular characteristics and clinical implications. The prognosis and treatment options for patients in both localized and advanced settings will be determined by the accurate identification of these tumor entities. The dissection of inter- and intra-tumor heterogeneity and the determination of RPS's cellular origin will be prominent future research topics. The process of incorporating biological and molecular characteristics into clinical care is ongoing, and it is hoped that this will result in the creation of individualized treatment plans for RPS patients.
